No, I don't at all get the idea it was poorly run. They started out with 30 students, and I think they're graduating around 22 or 23 in August, at least two of whom are attorneys, oddly enough. I...

One more little tidbit...And others here may not agree with me, but I'll state my opinion anyway. There are some accellerated programs out there. TWU had one, but killed it this past semester. I...

I'm in the TWU program in Dallas right now, but TWU has a very nice, shiny new campus there in Houston. (Tax Accountant/Consultant turned nurse, here.) There are a few things you should know... 1....

No, she doesn't give extra credit. People survive the class because she curves--BIG. She has to, or else hardly anyone would pass. There's typically a 15-20 point curve on each test because she...

Hey, nhoward! Yeah, we made it in...Now we just have to make it OUT! HA! Actually, I kind of understand that this semester is not so bad. A lot of work, but not so hard. I guess we'll see, won't...

I think Majors is full of crap. If I were you, I would e-mail ***** ***** and ask her. I think she's the one who kind of coordinates with the sales rep guy for Evolve. She should either know the...

No, no! Don't pack it all up and send it back. The online versions can be purchased through TWU's Evolve sales rep guy. I don't know if you have to pay for it (probably) or if he just gives you a...

I bought the book package from Majors. Although it was much more expensive, I was completely overwhelmed by all the information presented at orientation, so I thought it was worth the money to have...

First class is Pharm (Section 30) on Tuesday morning, then Concepts and Competencies Lecture Tuesday afternoon 1-3:50. Assessment lab Wednesday, C&C lab on Thursday. So, it looks like lecture on...

My head is swimming from the FLOOD of e-mails I'm now getting. Enroll in this, read that, take this quiz, do the module, DON'T do the module, print this. OH MY GOSH! Just when I think I have...

I had been told about Scrubs, Etc. There's a place here in my city that sells scrubs, so I'll try them first. If they don't have what I need, I'll find the nearest Scrubs, Etc. place. Just tryin'...

Yes, I'm going to that study session thing, too. Maybe that will shed some light on all my last minute questions. I'm not in the fast track program. I applied but didn't make it in...And now I'm...

My group is somewhat the same way, so I get where you're coming from. There was one girl from my group in my Patho class this summer, and she was super sweet. Nice girl. But she's not like me--2nd...

E-mailed Katie about it...Maybe she'll respond quickly and I can get it all straightened out. I hope they end up having a session on Thursday. My Wednesday is completely PACKED

Trying to get geared up for the start of the semester. Anyone have any idea if it's a good idea to get one of those rolly backpack things or just go with a regular old backpack? Thoughts??? I'm also...
